Abstrakt: Cranial reconstruction has evolved to achieve both functional coverage and esthetic appearance. Hair preservation/reconstruction and free flaps have markedly improved the soft tissue esthetic outcome. Restoration of bony contour has been facilitated by advanced craniofacial techniques and three-dimensional alloplast.
